With a slight wave, his subordinate stepped forward and leaned in as he whispered a few words in his ear...**Following the lead, Allen spent nearly two days investigating before finally making some headway. He placed the results on Suzy’s desk. “Boss, I tracked down that serial number.”Suzy set d
Suzy cracked the multi-layer encrypted site in just five minutes. Although its contents were classified, there was little of value to her—the information she sought was on the squadron's leader. She combed through the entire site, but there wasn’t a single clue about his identity.Unwilling to give
"Not only do you have an overactive imagination, but you're also ridiculously self-centered!" she scoffed, amazed at how he could twist such unrelated things into a connection. Seeing him about to speak again, Suzy pulled her hand free from his grip and held up a ‘pause’ gesture. "If you want that
This question was one he’d already answered, so her bringing it up again clearly meant she hadn’t been satisfied with his previous response. Suzy wouldn’t doubt him without reason—something must have pointed her suspicions back in his direction.Seeing Dylan stay silent, her gaze sharpened. “Why are
Eager to hear what Allen had uncovered, Suzy found Dylan’s refusal to leave particularly irritating. “And what does it matter to you who he is?”Allen chimed in, “The boss is right. Who do you think you are? Why should we explain our relationship to you?”Judging from her reaction, it seemed less li
"Because I’m in love with you!"Dylan’s words hit Suzy harder than she’d expected, leaving her momentarily stunned. The bitterness of his disdain over the past three years was still fresh in her mind, and now, just days after their divorce, he had a complete change of heart?Even Allen, who’d suspec
Seeing that Suzy was clearly annoyed, Dylan softened his tone. “No matter who was right or wrong in the past, I’ll make it up to you from now on.”“That won’t be necessary!” Suzy replied bluntly. “I don’t want your compensation, and I couldn’t care less about your feelings.”Couldn’t care less…A pa
“No,” Allen replied. “I’ve found a few leads, but the actual identity is still under investigation.”Suzy’s face fell. She’d thought they’d finally cracked it. If they didn’t have that information yet, what had prompted Allen to come find her in the middle of the night?Years of working together mea
Dylan never told Suzy what he was planning. No matter how many times she asked, he’d just flash a mischievous smile and say, "That’s classified information."Curiosity was a strange thing—the more someone kept a secret, the stronger the urge to uncover it became. And Suzy was no exception. The mo
Dylan's health had been deteriorating over the past few days. Sometimes, even speaking became a struggle.He didn’t dare tell Suzy. She was already overwhelmed with everything going on, and he didn’t want to add to her burden.Suzy noticed his silence after he called her name. He said nothing mor
"Evangeline Manor."Suzy froze. "What did you just say?""I tracked the figure all the way back to Evangeline Manor. They met with the Empress."Her mind went blank.The mastermind she’d been hunting for so long… was Evangeline?She suspected her sister-in-law once before, but she'd dismissed the th
"Evangeline, don’t think like that," Suzy said, comforting Evangeline. "Your kindness isn’t the problem—Serena’s lack of remorse is. Stop blaming yourself. Just leave her to me. I’ll handle everything. You just need to focus on getting better."Evangeline nodded, tears streaming down her face. "Su
Dylan couldn’t figure out what Suzy had in mind. She hadn’t explained her plan, leaving him completely in the dark.In reality, Suzy wasn’t planning to do anything. She’d decided to stop fighting and go along with the game.Whoever was behind this was clearly trying to mislead her, keeping her cha
"Suzy, please don't think that way anymore. If you do, I really don’t know what I’ll do," Evangeline said softly."Okay, I won’t," Suzy reassured her, squeezing her hand. "And you shouldn't think about it either. I’m right here with you. Just close your eyes and rest for a while."Evangeline obedie
Seeing how firmly Suzy insisted that Serena was the culprit, Simon didn’t argue further. He let out a long sigh. "Maybe you’re right. Like you said, the evidence does point to her.""I’ll find a way to make her confess," Suzy said with quiet determination.As they spoke, a loud crash came from Evan
"I’m on my way!" Suzy answered, then rushed straight to Evangeline's room.When she arrived, it was immediately clear that Evangeline wasn't struggling physically—it was her mental state that had deteriorated."I just got back," Simon said anxiously as he paced near the doorway. "The moment I walked
Suzy assumed that after enduring the punishment, Serena would break and tell the truth. But she didn’t.Even after being beaten to the brink of death, she refused to confess.Suzy stood there, watching Serena, who was slumped against the iron frame, her body covered in blood, her breathing shallow.
